PLEASE@  Charles A Peterson replies: "While I do appreciate your opinion of my work and am flattered you think enough of it to wish to include it in a web publication, until I know more about you and your intent I have to say no.

| 2 Feb 2005 | C. Clayton | Loading... Well, we share some favorite artists and/or influences. Frazetta is the Top dog in my book. ...and to compliment you properly I should say your work has both shades of Barry Winsor-Smith and Gil Kane. With perhaps a hint of Mike Kaluta... (who is a master and an artist's artist) and Mike Grell. Blah, enough name dropping. If I keep that up your head won't fit through doorways ...lol. Anyhoo, The long and short of it is, YOU got skillz. I see it and I'm payin' my respects.
I wish you well and great success in your future creative efforts, C | |
| 27 Jun 2005 | Tana Leah | Loading... You know, before I even read your bio, I was thinking, "Wow, this guy's work looks alot like Frank Frazetta's..." I used to read Conan mags when I was a little kid, and I gotta say, you are really good at what you do. | |

| 25 Apr 2008 |  Bill Gage | Loading... I wanted to say I really appreciated all of your work. I would ask how do you determine how the shadows are placed? I am so timid about placing extreme shadows on my images, that they lack the feel that yours get. Any tips? Are there any books or works you recommend to study? Charles A Peterson replies: "My best advice is to have a good understanding of how things are shaped in 3 dimensions, especially human anatomy. I like Peck, and Bridgman for this very reason. You get a great feel for how things "wedge" together and how light falls across them. After that it is all about picking a light source and sticking with it." | |
